My Project

I teach 90 amazing 8th grade ELA students. My students are hard workers and are fortunate to be in a district where we have lots of technology. Our classrooms have Promethean Boards that students love interacting on.

Interactive activities help students be engaged and they love learning.

With an iPad students can do activities and have them project on on the board. It lets the students be the teacher for a moment which they love!

Using an iPad increases student learning because they are actively engaged in assignments and learning.
